Doubling Farmers’ Income Through Export

The Government has adopted several developmental programmes, schemes, reforms and policies that focus on higher incomes for the farmers. All these policies & programmes are being supported by higher budgetary allocations, non-budgetary financial resources by way of creating Corpus Funds like Micro Irrigation Fund and Agri-marketing Fund, Promotion of 10,000 FPOs, Pradhan Mantri Krishi SinchaiYojna , Implementation of National Bee Keeping Honey Mission , Interest Subvention Scheme by providing Kisan Credit Card , Electronic National Agriculture Market  etc. Also, Agri infrastructure fund of Rupees one lakh crore has been setup for post-harvest infrastructure.
